God Is A Game Designer - 58 C58 Thousand Light Hope
Jelina continued to dig her feet into the ground, her eyes glaring at the next wave of beasts climbing as her halberd pieced into a monster, her strength tossing another Ratman into the ones climbing as she knocked one down from the weight of the corpse. Jelia felt her strength fading with the constant pressure, no rest as thousands of these beasts attacked over and over again, more taking place as she heard her sisters falling around her.
“Pull back to the final line. Hold out!”
Delina’s shout sounded out as the vampires retreated to the last line of defences, spiked walls and barricades high that provided protection, it became a last ditch effort to hold them off as the beasts had a chance now to attack back.
Delina looked around to her sisters as she held onto her halberd as she swung it in her hand, her vampires down to double digits now with the rest injured or even the few dead bodies out in the field. She felt her hope dying out as she knew the number remained in the thousands of figures.
Dozens of figures were pulling themselves over the edge, eyes filled now not with fear but rage as they had to fight this uphill battle, claws tearing and rending the defences as another wave charged forward, smashing into the frontlines of the defence.
Vampires fending off attack after attack as another wave came crashing down on them, more creatures appearing as injured vampires were removed from the battle and put next to the door.
Delina smashed her halberd down, the heavy blunt weight of it cracking a few skulls as she dispatched another small group in her area as she began to massacre as many as she could manage.
The claws were smashing, destroying and rending the defences as holes started to appear in the barricades, quickly becoming worthless with each passing moment. Delina was feeling her body quaking as she needed Nathan back here to help against such creatures.
“M’lady, the lines are broken now. We need to pull back to the gate and fight side to side!”
Delina knew that plan was a failure; they would get rendered to pieces and almost instantly falter and die.
Delina looked at the ceiling as she gulped, her voice shouting as loudly as she could manage.
“NATHAN!”
Her voice hit all the walls, the Ratmen turning to look at her in confusion for a brief moment, it was not till the first golden white light appeared, floating through the thick stone that the battle stopped, the Ratmen confused as this bright light floated down, landing on the head of one of the older Ratmen.
In almost an instant the Ratman screeched as its body started to turn to ash, its body falling to the ground as it became nothing but a pile of particles in a moment, three small white lights floating from him and slamming into the nearest Ratmen. The process continued as the Ratmen scrambled away from this, trying to flee as thousands of similar Golden lights appeared from the walls, floors and ceilings.
In a matter of minutes thousands of Ratmen became nothing but dust, the final screeching became silent as the room was dead in an instant.
“He heard, we lived.”
Delina fell to her knees, tears streaming down her face as she had felt worried for a moment, life flashing for a brief second as she had worried about the safety of everything.
“I should never have worried; he is the all father after all.”
Nathan came back along the corridors, the silence almost refreshing as he held the death orb in his hand as all he saw was piles of ash, his ability having changed as he knew that this new power was from fertility.
“Sever the Lines”
He had spoken to Auryn about how this ability was dangerous; it was not just an ability to give life but also able to take it away.
System: Sever the Lines Registered into the profile.
System: Sever The Lines: Target in sight. The target is rendered sterile. All their children immediately suffer and quickly perish. All grandchildren will then get targeted, then Great grandchildren all the way down to the fifth generation. The only cure is divine intervention or another divine power word to interrupt. Mortals have no method to resist.
Nathan looked at the message as his legs crossed due to nervousness as he forgot that this ability also turned them sterile.
“Why did I put that into the system when they also die. I think because It’s not supposed to kill the target.”
He slowly shook his head as he came back to the main corridor, many footprints in the dried blood from earlier as Nathan walked down the hallway. The system had been rather silent about his points.
System: You want me to send all the notifications of the points gathered.
“No, stop reading my mind as well. That is creepy!”
System: We both know that it’s easier this way.
“It could be much easier if I had my admin menu.”
System: I cant. So much has happened and it took so much effort to bring you here. You will understand.
Nathan raised an eyebrow to that, his suspicions becoming closer as he knew this was not a typical system, this almost gave him the evidence to say this was someone talking back to him behind the operation.
“Well, I guess we shall tell sooner or later. We will need to have this chat at some point and punishment as well as to me getting dumped somewhere without help.”
System: Not today though!
Nathan sighed as he entered back into the main hallway, his eyes growing wide as he saw the entire clan of vampires standing in the opening, everyone bending down as they got onto their knees as everyone bowed deeply, heads onto the ash covered ground as over one hundred vampires paid him respect.
Nathan stared in awe as he took a few steps forward.
“Ladies, please raise yourselves. You do realise that you are pressing yourselves into the dead bodies of thousands of rats right now.”
“Gross.”
